It was a blistering hot, windy day but did that stop us year 3 and 4 kids from our adventure? No! we set off for Fitzroy Falls in two buses driven by our two trusty drivers – Mrs Tarlinton and Mrs Walsh.

We went for a walk and learnt about bush tucker and bush medicine. Did you know that one leaf is more powerful than vitamin C when you eat it; another plant can be rubbed to create soap lather to wash yourself; and another plant can be used as a hair brush.

We learnt about native and feral animals and how much feral animals wreck our environment.

Unfortunately, there wasn’t much water falling over the cliff because of the drought.

We had an awesome day and can’t believe how much we learnt… AND… how much walking we did.
